To the memory of my mother Edith. To four creative women who experienced breast cancer as a journey of revelation and transformation: Audre Lorde, Deena Metzger, Virginia Soffa, Treya Killam Wilber. To those who have inspired me to know the depth of our power to heal: Ainslie Meares, Stephen Levine, Tullia Forlani Kidde. To my friend Robin Keuneke for her encouragement to write this book. To my friend Anne who died of breast cancer but lives in my heart. To Jonathan who reminded me that there is life after breast cancer, for shelter in the storm and more. To my doctors who embodied the approach that encourages self-healingopenhearted honesty, enthusiasm, sharing, caring: Dr. Richie Zelkowitz, Dr. Susan Love. And, finally, to all women. May we find the power of the feminine to heal ourselves and the Earth.
